President Trump on Sunday afternoon expressed outrage over an apparent lack of law enforcement arrests of rioters who have brought violence upon several American cities following the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis last week.
«SO TERRIBLE! Where are the arrests and LONG TERM jail sentences?» Trump asked in reaction to a tweet claiming to show a graphic video of a Dallas man being beaten into critical condition while trying to defend a business.
Full video of the incident taken by Elijah Schaffer of Blaze TV purportedly showed the man on the receiving end of the beatdown first attempted to chase away the rioters while brandishing what appeared to be a large blade or sword.
Floyd died Monday after a Minneapolis Police Department officer kneeled on his neck for several minutes while Floyd was handcuffed and begging for air. The officer, Derek Chauvin, was arrested and charged with third-degree murder and manslaughter.
Floyd’s death triggered protests in Minneapolis and nationwide against police brutality and racial inequality, representing a boiling over of racial tensions following multiple incidents of black people being killed in racially charged interactions with police and white people in recent months.
